Code R in emergency room means to rescue anyone out of immediate danger.

Code A is to activate the fire alarm, Code C is contain the fire, Code E is to extinguish the fire.

Code Blue in a hospital means someone is experiencing a life-threatening medical emergency, typically an adult.

Code red in hospital means someone is in the hospital and sees fire or smoke or anyone in the hospital working notices flame.

Code RED for fire.

Code BLUE for adult medical emergency.

Code WHITE for pediatric medical emergency.

Code PINK for infant abduction.

The most serious code in a hospital is Code Blue which means someone is experiencing a life-threatening medical emergency, typically an adult.

It often means cardiac arrest or respiratory failure.

All staff members near the location of the code may need to go to the patient.

Most of the time, each employee has a preassigned role in the event of a Code Blue.

Code black in a hospital typically means there is a bomb threat.

Hospitals are the most common institutions that use color codes to designate emergencies.

Law enforcement agencies, schools, and other types of healthcare facilities (such as skilled nursing homes) may also use variations on these emergency codes.
